Dark Monday • Bernadette Covers Madonna

Bernadette Peters's version of Stephen Sondheim's Sooner or Later from Dick Tracy from her 1998 concert at the Royal Festival Hall in London. The song, written by Sondheim for Warren Beatty's movie, was originally sung by Madonna. She played Breathless Mahoney, Night Club Singer with a thing for crime bosses and detectives. Well, Bernadette brings the sexy to the number, and sings it beautifully.
